With the increasing power rate of the electric power in each electric power company, the importance of the peak cut of electric power as a measure to reduce the base power rate, has been increasingly required in mainly small electric-power consumers of high voltage
such as small-to-medium-sized buildings or stores. On April, 2014, the amending law of saving energy shall be planning to come into force and the suppression of the electric power consumption (demand) has been required. In the market, the verification test on demand response as a measure for the purpose of responding to power supply shortage has been performed. In future, demand for the demand control unit applicable to demand response as a measure for saving power has been expected increasingly to grow.

This product has an ability to totally control the power-consumption in different stations as well as remote-control, utilizing “cloud services” of including IBM Japnaor FUJISOFTwith less introduction cost and less introduction period. And further more, this product is able to control the suitable power-consumption depending on the situations by utilizing the information on “cloud”. In future, we are intending to expand this unit to stores, factories, and buildings in the self-governing communities cooperating with BEMS (Building Energy Management System) aggregators and engineering companies introducing BEMS to small-to-medium-sized-buildings.

Features

1.Applicable to demand response, achieving total management of power-consumption and as well as remote control in different stations

2.Taking in environmental parameter elements including a temperature and a humidity, compatible with saving energy and comfortableness

3.Power monitoring and controlling in each store moving into buildings such as chain-stores are possible
